You hear“Honey; we are getting late!” This is the third call from some John Doe is making to his companion, who, as accustomed, is spending so much time making ready. What he cannot understand is this – the lady in question is fully dressed, and still, she still claims that she is not prepared.

For a man, this appears like quite an obvious thing to fix – I express, “Just pick a random pair from your wardrobe” he says.

All in all, one thing reaches out when it comes to choosing the perfect shoes: no woman wants to be seen in outdated shoes that have gone way out of style. This is why we are continually on the rampage trying to find out the latest shoes we can add to our collections.
